Dear all (and apologies for cross posting)

The deadline for nominees for co-chair of the ALAO Special Collections and
Archives Interest Group (SCAIG) has been extended to *May 27, 2022*. If you
are interested, please read below and contact current co-chairs, Henry
Handley (hhandley1 at udayton.edu) and Josh Zeller (Joshua.Zeller at msj.edu)
with questions!

Beginning in July 2022, the new co-chair will work with current co-chair,
Josh Zeller, to promote archives and special collections, as well as
develop new professional development opportunities for fellow members of
this community. The term is for 2 years, staggered with the other co-chair
term, and runs July-June. Self-nominations are welcome! Nominees must be a
member of both ALAO and SCAIG.

Duties of co-chairs include:

   - Programming the annual SCAIG workshop/conference with a planning
   committee
   - Attending the annual ALAO board retreat/training and quarterly virtual
   meetings with fellow IG chairs and the ALAO IG coordinator
   - Attending the ALAO annual meeting to engage with interest group members
   - Submitting quarterly reports to the board
   - Submitting updates to the ALAO Newsletter
   - Updating SCAIG’s web page
   - Managing the SCAIG Google Group list

With the planned return of the annual ALAO conference to an in-person
venue, there are additional potential opportunities to contribute to the
conference with special collections and archives colleagues.

If you are interested, please send a short (no more than 500 words)
statement of interest to the co-chairs, Henry Handley (hhandley1 at udayton.edu)
and Josh Zeller (Joshua.Zeller at msj.edu). And if you'd like to learn more,
please contact us as well! We’re both happy to discuss the
responsibilities, time commitments, and personal experiences. This is a
great service opportunity for archives and special collections and
contribution to the professional community.

Thanks for your consideration!

Sincerely,

Henry Handley and Josh Zeller
